Summary
“Even if that person will mourn my death, it is only temporary--for they have a broad shoulder to rest their head against and gentle, calloused hands to soothe their aches.”
Let Anaxagoras fade into nothingness, forgotten with the neverending passage of time.
Let those he loved meet the morning dawn with a smile, and push forward without looking back.
or: a feeble scholar (almost) lets himself be consumed by bloodied flowers

Summary
Aventurine makes it out of the abyss - and into a different world. Things are different here - simpler. There are no Aeons, no intergalactic factions and corporations, no Paths and Blessings. He is not naïve enough to assume that there is no cruelty and discrimination here - for there always is - but for the most part, everything is peaceful.
Here, Aventurine's priorities are getting people's coffee orders right. Fairly straight forward, if you ask him.
Except for the bit where he is surrounded by too many familiar faces, and they remind him of a place he can no longer return to. That's okay. People come and go, and so will they.
Except for the bit where they come and go and come back.
AKA. Aventurine gets dropped into a coffee-shop AU with all the memories from before. He's handling things until he's not handling things. That's okay, because he still has friends (and Dr Ratio) in this world. He just doesn't know it yet.

Summary
“That’s not childish.” If he had a heart, he’s sure it would be pounding. “That’s the definition of peace. The soul’s greatest desire. It is never too far out of reach.”
“Isn’t it?” Phainon whispers, but his brow gentles, posture relaxing into the chilly night's air. “And what is it you desire, Anaxa?”
A touch, as the baby dromas snuggles close, and for one fleeting moment, an image crosses his thoughts. Watching the sunset, satisfied from a day fulfilled by the gentle touch of companionship and a homecooked meal. They'd have a home, together.
“Peace,” Anaxa says eventually. “I, too, desire peace.”
Anaxagoras has fifteen days left to alter the course of Amphoreus' history for good, and he's resigned every hour to it wreathed in the slow and agonizing deterioration of a body that is already dead. The plan was to spend the brunt of it alone, in the solitary halls of his quarters.
The plan did not include Phainon, who shows up at his door in the middle of the night, asking for a place to stay.
or: Anaxa is dying. Phainon disagrees.

Summary
“Good morning, Angel,” Kafka says in that soft lilting way of hers. “I'm here to ask a little favor from you.”
Sunday nods. He’d be amenable to even a large favor. He owes her and the Stellaron Hunters a great debt, even if the Stellaron Hunters never plan to collect.
She hands him two credit cards and a burner phone. “I got a new Script for me and the girls, so we’ll be heading out as soon as I can rouse them out of bed. We might be away for a week or so, so I need someone to keep an eye on Bladie. Could you do that for me?”
